I've been looking at this on various platforms. I can't easily test Windows due to an apparent build problem, but on Linux and Solaris:
...
ARM (gtk2, emulated by Qemu, not susceptible to alignment errors): Debugger access is erratic, works best if debug windows displayed before program run. "Step into" (-> -exec-step-instruction) OK. "Step Over" (-> -exec-next-instruction") OK. Assembler window shows tabs as \t.
Can you send a sample (from the debug output window) of what data-disassemble returns? So I can see some data with \t

SPARC (gtk2): "Step into" (-> -exec-step-instruction) appears to step over the next instruction if it's a call, however this appears to be an artifact of the way calls work (i.e. with a mandatory nop appended). "Step Over" (-> -exec-next-instruction") OK provided that the above is taken into consideration. Assembler window shows tabs as \t.
Or send the output from this. Whichever , on e is enough.


If "-exec-step-instruction" is sent, then it is a gdb issue. (Could be debug-info encoding from fpc, if there is debug info for that. I don't know if gdb would use that for single-instruction steps

Reliability in some cases might be improved by restarting Lazarus after a debugging session, particularly if the target program hasn't run to completion.
Try "Reset debugger" from menu "run". (Afaik, ctrl-F1)

Lazarus keeps gdb running. So if gdb is unstable, that may be an issue
